Answer: Radioactive substances can cause genetic deformation, causing cancer and undesirable hereditary effects.

Explanation:  These can happen when the body is exposed to radioactive substances for a long time, thus, the radiation penetrates into the body, thereby damaging the cells and tissues.

How much current is drawn by a television with a resistance of 30 ω that is connected across a potential difference of 120v?
melomori [17]

By using the Ohms law, we can calculate the current.

Ohms law,

 \frac{V}{I}  = R

Here, V is potential difference, and R is the resistance.

Given,  V=120 V and R = 30 ohm.

Therefore, putting the given values in above relation , we get

\frac{120V}{I} = 30 ohm

or          I=\frac{120}{30} = 4 A

Thus, the current is drawn by a television 4 Ampere

A 2.40 kg snowball is fired from a cliff 7.69 m high. The snowball's initial velocity is 13.0 m/s, directed 49.0° above the hori
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

a) W = 180.87 J , b)  ΔU = -180.87 J , c)  ΔU = -180.87 J

Explanation:

a) Work is defined as

         W = F .ds

Where bold indicates vectors, we can write the scalar product

         W = F s cos θ

Where the angle is between force and displacement.

The force of gravity is the weight of the body, which is directed downwards and the displacement thickens the tip of the cliff at the bottom, so that it is directed downwards, therefore the angle is zero degrees

        W = F_{g} y

        W = m g y

For this problem we must fix a reference system, from the statement it is established that the system is placed at the base of the cliff, so that final height is zero and the initial height (y₀ = 7.69m)

    W = 2.40 9.8 (7.69-0)

    W = 180.87 J

b) The potential energy is

            U = mg y

The change in potential energy,

        ΔU = U_{f}- U₀

       ΔU = mg (y_{f}- y₀)

      ΔU = 2.4 9.8 (0 -7.69)

      ΔU = -180.87 J

 

c) in this case we change the reference system to the height of the cliffs, for this configuration

          y₀ = 0

          y_{f} = -7.69 m

          ΔU = 2.4 9.8 (-7.69 -0)

          ΔU = -180.87 J

Which image best illustrates diffraction?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

When light transitions from the air to the water the light bends due to refraction. The refractive index is related to the speed of light in both air and water. The Wikipedia article on Refraction does and excellent job of explaining this.
